Whether your DracoStryx was born blind or lost their sight due to illness or injury, they must learn a specialized set of skills to navigate their envrionment.
Your blind Stryx must complete Blindness Training in order to participate in Basic Training, Tributes, or other group activities. Complete three (3) art or writing pieces, one for each Stage in order to Blindness Train your Stryx.
Blindness Training Prompts
| Stage 1 - Asking for Help | Help may be offered whether it is requested or not. Either way, your Stryx will meet many others across the course of their life who may-- or may not-- be important touchstones in their life. Show your Stryx and a rider or another stryx interacting and guiding each other with voice or touch. (A rider or companion Stryx is REQUIRED.) |
| Stage 2 - The World Around You | There are a plethora of ways to navigate the world, and your Stryx must learn what works best for them. Show your Stryx on foot, navigating obstacles. |
| Stage 3 - Undaunted | Your Stryx has learned their own strengths and weaknesses, and can move onwards with confidence. Show your Stryx in flight, performing an acrobatic trick, or another challenging feat that shows their understanding of themselves and their environment. |
